On the other hand I was being seen at a rapid care clinic and diagnosed with the flu. I am a pharmacist and am still breastfeeding they didnot want to give me tamiflu unless I stopped breastfeeding. My sons pediatrician treated me instead....

My OB pretty much told me the same thing when I was pregnant and pulled a muscle chasing a run away toddler "Don't do that again". Then, the next pregnancy, I had a terrible arthritis flare up. Every visit he said: "Don't do so much". I got concerned when, near the end, he expanded "Don't do so much. Take it easy". LOL.
